Websites for tree services in Mobile, AL, built for storm season.
When a pine comes through a fence at six in the morning, the homeowner isn't reading a brochure. They're on a phone, searching, and calling the first tree service that looks real and picks up. I build websites for tree services that are made for that moment: a call button under the thumb, your own crew and equipment in the photos, and a page for every service you sell, from emergency removal to stump grinding to land clearing.
What they search
Nobody searches "tree company." They search the job.
Look at what people actually type. "Emergency tree removal Mobile." "Stump grinding near me." "Tree trimming Fairhope." "Land clearing Foley." "Tree service Daphne AL." Each one is a different person with a different problem, and Google ranks pages, not businesses. If your whole site is one page that lists everything you do, you're asking that one page to win every one of those searches. It won't.
So I build one page per service. Emergency and storm work gets its own page. Removal, trimming, stump grinding, lot and land clearing, each gets its own. Every page is written around the words people in your area use, with your town and the towns you drive to named in plain text. That's the heart of local SEO, and it's in every site I build, not an add-on.
It also keeps the hurricane-season searches and the regular Tuesday-afternoon searches from fighting each other. "Storm damage tree removal Spanish Fort" lands on a page about storm work. "Stump grinding Gulf Shores" lands on a page about stumps, with the call button right there.
What it needs
Six things a tree service site has to have.
Every site I build comes with your real photos and reviews, and it's fast on a phone. A tree crew needs six more things.
- 1
A storm button that never scrolls away
An emergency bar pinned to the bottom of the phone screen with your number on it. In a storm week, from June through November, it's the only thing on the site that matters.
- 2
Before-and-after job photos
Your crew, your bucket truck, the yard before and after. Named by job and town so Google reads them too. No stock photo of a stranger in a harness.
- 3
An estimate form the crew reads from the truck
Name, address, what's wrong, a photo of the tree. It lands on your phone as a text, so you can look at it between jobs and be the first one to call back.
- 4
A service-area section
The towns you actually drive to, in plain text: Mobile, Daphne, Fairhope, Spanish Fort, Foley, Gulf Shores, out to Pensacola if that's true. Google needs the words, not just a map.
- 5
Your insurance and license, stated plainly
Homeowners are told to check it before they let a crew climb. Your insurance line and any license you carry go near the top of every page, not buried on the about page.
- 6
Hurricane-season readiness
Before the season, I can switch the front page to storm mode: the emergency line up top, what to expect, a pre-storm trimming offer. After the storm, back to normal. Email or text me the change and it's done; that's what the monthly covers.
See one built
Fowl River Tree & Land, a sample site.
Fowl River Tree & Land is a made-up business. I built its site to show a tree service owner what one looks like in your hand: the storm strip, numbered services, a photo grid, the estimate form, the service-area section and the call bar pinned to the bottom. Nothing on it is a real company, and it carries no reviews, on purpose. Your site shows your real Google reviews. A sample shouldn't invent any.

What it costs
The plan that usually fits: Standard.
Most tree services fit the Standard plan, from $2,700 to build and $200 a month, with up to 10 pages. That's enough for a home page, a page for every service, a storm page, a photo gallery, a service-area page and contact.
A one-truck operation with three services might fit Starter. If you run crews out of two yards, say Mobile and Pensacola, and want a full page for each town, that's Custom. I'll tell you straight which one fits, including if it's the cheaper one.
Extra pages are $100 each. If you don't have a logo, I can make one for $300. Ongoing local SEO after launch, with monthly Google Business Profile posts and a new page each month, is $250 a month on any plan. Half of the build up front, half when it's live, and the monthly has a 6-month minimum from launch. All the pricing is on one page, and the quote builder gives you a ballpark before you ever talk to me.
Common questions
Tree service owners ask me these.
Do I need a page for every town I work in?
Not always. If you work out of Mobile and drive to Daphne, Fairhope and Spanish Fort, one service-area page that names those towns does the job for most crews. If you run a second yard in Pensacola or Biloxi and want to be found there on its own, a real page for that town is worth it, and that's the Custom plan. What I won't do is copy one page nine times and swap the town name. Google sees through it and it can hurt you.
Can homeowners text me from the site?
Yes. The call button and a "Text me" button both sit where a thumb lands. Estimate requests come to your phone as a text too, with the address and their photo attached, so you can look at the tree before you drive out.
What happens to the site during a hurricane?
It stays up. It's hosted well away from the coast, so the storm that takes your power doesn't take your site. Before the season, I can put the emergency line on the front page so people find your number in one tap. Text me the change and it's done.
I've only got a Facebook page. Isn't that enough?
Facebook is good for showing yesterday's job to people who already follow you. It's bad at being found by a stranger searching "tree removal near me," and it isn't yours. A site you own, connected to your Google Business Profile, is what shows up on the map. Keep the Facebook page and point it at the site.
Will the site get me ranked?
No honest shop can promise a ranking. What I can promise is that it's built to be found: one page per service, your towns named, fast on a phone, and connected to Google Search Console and your Business Profile on launch day. That gives you a real shot at the searches that bring in jobs.
